Add an Object Override

Caution

If cloud-delivered Firewall Management Center is deployed on your tenant:

Changes you make to network objects and groups on the Objects > FTD Network Objects or Objects > FDM Objects or Objects > ASA Objects page are reflected in the corresponding cloud-delivered Firewall Management Center network object or group on the Objects > Other FTD Objects page. In addition, an entry is created in the Devices with Pending Changes page for each on-prem management center with Discover & Manage Network Objects enabled, from which you can choose and deploy the changes to the on-prem management center on which you have these objects.

Deleting a network object or group from either page deletes the object or group from both pages.

Procedure

Step 1

In the CDO navigation bar on the left, click Objects > FDM Objects.

Step 2

Locate the object to which you want to add an override, using object filters and search field.

Step 3

Select the network object and click the edit icon in the Actions pane.

Step 4

Enter the value in the Override Values dialog box and click + Add Value.

Important

The override you are adding must have the same type of value that the object contains. For example, to a network object, you can configure an override only with a network value and not a host value.

Step 5

Once you see that the value is added, click the cell in the Devices column in Override Values.

Step 6

Click Add Devices, and choose the device to which you want the override to be added. The device you select must contain the object to which you are adding the override.

Step 7

Click Save. CDO displays the devices that will be affected by the change.

Step 8

Click Confirm to finalize the addition of the override to the object and any devices affected by it.

Note	You can add more than one override to an object. However, you must select a different device, which contains the object, each time you are adding an override.

Step 9

See Object Overrides to know more about object overrides and Edit Object Overrides to edit an existing override.
